For those of you who haven’t enjoyed the incredible combination of pumpkin and chocolate…let me request this recipe be your first. It’s incredibly easy to prepare and is fool-proof. I debated whether or not to fill the cookie cups with a no-bake pumpkin cheesecake filling or whether to have a true pumpkin cheesecake baked right into the cookie cup. You can see which route I took 🙂

These cookie cups disappeared so fast though that a no-bake filling version will be coming along soon. I can’t wait to give that a try.

I used my favorite chocolate cookie dough recipe as a base and whipped up just enough pumpkin cheesecake filling for the cookie cups. Because I’ve gotten quite addicted to the mini chocolate chips in chocolate recipes, especially cookies, they found their way in here as well. They add a richness and intensity to the cookie cups that is perfect with the pumpkin cheesecake filling.

While cooling, the cheesecake will pull away from the sides of the cookie cup. Perfectly normal, do not freak out. This is what happens when cheesecake cools.

The cool, creaminess of the pumpkin cheesecake center is a pleasant counterbalance to the rich chocolate cookie. The pumpkin flavor really shines through with the help of pumpkin pie spice.

Because of the cheesecake center, the cookies do need to be refrigerated. They can be brought out 20 minutes or so before eating allowing the cookie cup to soften slightly. Truly delicious!

    Sorry- Missed that. I wanted to thank you for your delicious recipe. I made it as written the other day to freeze for Thanksgiving. With the cinnamon, it tastes reminiscent of Mexican chocolate.

    Today, I got a little creative and replaced the pumpkin with raspberry jam. And then I also put a small dot of raspberry jam over the cookie layer, under the cheesecake layer and topped with some more mini chocolate chips. This variation also worked really well- My family will greatly enjoy your recipe this holiday.

    Also, how many eggs in the cookie part of the recipe- it is in the directions but not in the ingredients.

    Filling contains no pumpkin- is that a misprint?

    This recipe calls for water to be added, but doesn’t say how much??

      That was an error Lindsay – no water is needed 🙂 Thank you for catching that!
